Procurement Principles • MBDA-GE Ethical Principles • Global Sourcing Successfully doing business and responsible behaviour MBDA-GE procures worldwide in order to find suppliers in society is not a contradiction for us nor should it be delivering best performance in quality, experience and for our suppliers. Fairness, transparency, accountability delivery targets. In terms of costs, we look at the Total and sustainability are values that we expect our suppliers Cost of Ownership rather than list prices. to adhere to as MBDA-GE does itself. • ‘One Face to the Supplier’ • Commitment to Competition The Procurement department is involved in all activities Value for money is best achieved by competition. In order to with MBDA-GE’s suppliers, thereby ensuring trans - ensure competition among its suppliers, MBDA-GE continuously parency and legal compliance. analyses the market and requests tenders from various compa - nies. 7 • Industrial Co-Operation and Offset As it is often required to fulfil Offset obligations (compensation agreements) by foreign customers, MBDA-GE strives to use business done with its suppliers as much as possible to comply with these re - quirements. Therefore, it is important that suppliers inform us about the workshare they can tender in MBDA-GE Offset countries on the basis of activities generated by themselves, their subsidiaries or even subcontractors. 5. Quality Requirements and Regulations 5.1 Quality Certifications Depending on the product or service procured, MBDA-GE may request the following key quality certifications from its suppliers: • DIN EN 9100 • ISO 9001 • AQAP (Allied Quality Assurance Public ations) MBDA-GE or its customers may require audits at the supplier’s premises. The supplier 8 is expected to support all audits. 5.2 Export Control Regulations As MBDA-GE is a defence company, we and our suppliers are obliged to comply with national and international export control regulations, in particular with the US Inter - national Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). Every supplier is required to support MBDA-GE and its customers in fulfilling all export control requirements, e.g. by providing all relevant export control information and documentation. Therefore, the supplier receives an export control questionnaire for materials intended to be supplied to us. 5.3 Environmental Regulations MBDA-GE is committed to protect the environment and therefore requires that suppliers work in a way such that the impact on the environment and consumption of resources is minimised. All suppliers are obliged to comply with the European REACH regulation and provide MBDA-GE with the relevant required information. Suppliers should have or be in the process of developing an Environmental Management System in accordance with the requirements of ISO 14001. 6. Procurement Practices 6.1 Supplier Selection If necessary, MBDA-GE issues a Request for Information (RFI) to potential suppliers. Responses are analysed and tested with regard to our requirements. Based on the re - sults, qualified suppliers are asked to respond to a Request for Proposal (RfP), which will finally be negotiated with the selected candidate. Suppliers have to fulfil certain criteria in order to be selected as provider for goods or services. The most important criteria for the supplier selection are: 9 • Product portfolio, variety, technology and information provided by the supplier through Request for Information or supplier questionnaire • Capability of the supplier to fulfil expectations regarding quality, cost, technology, logistics, customer service and business behaviour • Relevant certifications and legal obligations, such as: - EN ISO 9001 - DIN EN 9100 - AQAP - REACH - RoHS - ITAR - AEO • Experiences on Shareholder or Group level • The supplier’s ability to support us in our offset obligations • Social and environmental governance • Willingness of the supplier to accept our Terms and Conditions of Purchase 6.2 Supplier Base Categorisation It is a systematic and long-term approach to drive supplier S t performance towards excellence. MBDA-GE classifies its suppliers into following ra te categories based on their impact on business: l g e ic v e K L e Excellent Outstanding Performance

  • Press Release
    Press release 16 June 2009 MBDA CO-ORDINATING FRANCO-BRITISH MISSILE RESEARCH In a few days, an innovative approach to defence equipment research will be delivering its first results. MBDA, at the heart of a partnership bringing together French and UK efforts in the field of missiles, is co-ordinating a team that includes large businesses, SMEs, laboratories and universities. The Innovation and Technology Partnership on Materials and Components for Missiles (MCM ITP) is being performed under a Technical Arrangement between French Delegation Generale pour l’Armement (DGA) and UK Ministry of Defence (MOD) to optimise missile research activities. The sharing of the results from within the research themes of this sensitive defence sector will be presented at the MCM ITP (Materials and Components for Missiles – Innovation & Technology Partnership) conference which will take place at the Grand Palais in Lille (in the north of France) on 22nd and 23rd June 2009. For the first time, two countries are sharing advanced research results as well as their aspirations for technology breakthroughs in subject areas such as: co-operative guidance of multiple missiles; miniaturised active antennae based on MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) technology; UV fluorescence for target discrimination ; dual mode seekers ; thrust modulation in rocket motors; modular effect warheads and intelligent materials allowing for morphing, namely the continuous deformation of aerodynamic control surfaces. In December 2007, MBDA, Europe’s missile systems champion, was awarded a three- year contract (extendable to five years) to carry out the first ITP partnership between France and the UK. With an annual budget of 14 million euros, this programme brings together the missile industry of the two countries, and notably, the SMEs, universities and state laboratories.

WHO OWNS BRITISH DEFENCE CONTRACTORS AND DOES IT MATTER? Derek Braddon* and Jonathan Bradley Defence Economic Research Unit, University of the West of England, Bristol, UK, BS16 5DE Tel: (44) (0) 117 9656261 Abstract This paper presents the findings of research into the distribution of the rewards from capital used in defence production. Much existing research has examined the supply chain in the production of defence goods, but there have been few attempts to look at the ownership of suppliers. First, the paper examines two theoretical issues: why the identity of shareholders in defence contractors should have any economic or political significance, and whether the use of capital in defence industries should in principle be expected to be the same as that in any other industry. It then investigates the identity and ownership of the contractors concerned in 2003-4, using several case studies. It finds that many of the largest suppliers to the UK government are foreign-owned or controlled, and it finds evidence of a surprising degree of American equity participation in major British contractors.

INTRODUCTION There are several reasons why the ownership of defence contracting companies is of significance. Firstly, many governments, including those of the United Kingdom and the United States, have extended considerably their use of public/private partnerships, private financing arrangements, outsourcing, and other arrangements that amount to various forms of privatization.
